Patent abstract
The present invention provides improved methods and compositions for the generation of transgenic non-human animals. The present invention permits the introduction of exogenous nucleic acid sequences into the genome of unfertilized eggs (e.g., pre-maturation oocytes and pre-fertilization oocytes) by microinjection of infectious retrovirus into the perivitelline space of the egg. The methods of the present invention provide an increased efficiency of production of transgenic animals with a reduced rate of generating animals which are mosaic for the presence of the transgene.
